Since the Dawn of Man there has been an irresistible urge to run our fingers over large smooth objects.
I paused on my lunch break.
The holiday decorations at the old Southern Pacific building consist of mammoth red and gold balls placed in the middle of the walkway. Not mounted on a pedestal, they demand to be touched. The artist seems to be saying, stop, rouse yourself from your preoccupations, see and feel this colorful, massive object.
It soon will be Christmas, when something colorful and massive came into the world. Did you even stop to notice?
